What Brisbane Landlords Should Do If Their Property Manager Rental Trends Goes Into Liquidation

For many property owners, discovering that their property management company has suddenly gone into liquidation can be extremely stressful.
You may be wondering:
- Is my tenant still paying rent?
- Who is managing the property now?
- How do I contact my tenant?
- What happens to my rental income?
- What should I do next?
If you’re a landlord affected by a property management company entering liquidation, you’re not alone. Situations like this can leave property owners feeling confused, uncertain, and worried about their investment.
The good news is that there are clear steps you can take to stabilise the situation and regain control of your property.
Rental Trends Update for Property Owners
Recent public notices confirm that Legacy Rise Pty Ltd (ACN 660 278 633), trading as Rental Trends, has been placed into liquidation.
According to an official notice published by ASIC, the company entered liquidation following the appointment of a liquidator on 25 February 2026.
Rental Trends has operated as a Brisbane property management company servicing local landlords and tenants.
For landlords who had properties managed through the agency, the announcement may understandably raise questions about the status of rent payments, tenant communication, and ongoing management responsibilities.
Are you consistently receiving your rental disbursements late? LINK Living has recently taken over the management of a few their properties with the owners now receiving regular rental payments.
If your investment property was managed through Rental Trends, it may be important to review your situation and ensure your property has clear ongoing management.
Common Concerns Owners May Be Facing Right Now
When a property management agency enters liquidation, landlords often experience a similar set of immediate concerns.
1. Uncertainty Around Rent Payments
Owners may be unsure:
- whether rent has been collected
- where funds are currently held
- whether tenants have continued making payments.
Are you consistently receiving your rental disbursements late?
A new property manager can help clarify payment arrangements and establish a clear process going forward.
2. Tenants May Not Know Who Manages the Property
Tenants may also be unsure who they should contact regarding:
- maintenance requests
- lease questions
- rent payments
Establishing clear communication quickly can help prevent confusion and ensure the tenancy continues smoothly.
3. Maintenance and Repairs May Be Outstanding
If the management office has stopped operating normally, maintenance requests or inspections may have been delayed.
Professional management can step in to review and coordinate any outstanding issues to protect the property.
4. Owners Are Left Without Clear Guidance
One of the biggest challenges for landlords in this situation is simply not knowing what to do next.
Having an experienced property management team guide the transition can help restore stability quickly.
